First Lions test vs. South Africa
#1
Exciting! Any predictions on the result, and the winning margin?
My heart (naturally) says Lions, my mind says Springboks.
It cold be very close though, as long as there's no 'Oh, sorry - I didn't mean to spear-tackle Brian O'Driscoll in the first 60 seconds of the game' moment tomorrow. :evil: :evil: :evil:

Wahey more rugby!!!!! Im telling ye now that the lions are facing a serious uphill battle. I have never in my life seen a pack being trounced to the level the Lions were in the first half...i mean their supposedly powerful scrum was a shambles and Phil Vickery was well and truly spanked by "The Beast". Wasnt impressed with Stephen Jones either and to be honest i think our own Paul O'Connell was dissappointing.
Positives...well outscoring the Boks 3 to 2 was impressive and if there had been a proper winger on the pitch possible another 1 or 2 would have been score. Also the O'Driscoll-Roberts combination was very influential.

Can they do it?In theory yes, but im living more in hope than expectation to be honest!

Disgusted with the second test result. What was O'Gara thinking to jump up like that? To lose a match in the last minute of play. Arrrggggghhhhh. :twisted:

And now that they won the last test, my above comment is even more relevant. Cry
